I want to create a form that works with ‘button id=“this” onclick=“sendToME”’ and I do not have my email reavealed (unless they open the console) at the moment of sending the data from the form.
The proper way to achieve your goal is to make an api endpoint (the button should point here), which are handle the process of email sending.

I have some problem while getting data from another site. In this case I want to get the reservation data from the booking engine site and they want to pass the data to me with Google Tag Manager. I don't really understand what I should do when they just need GTM code. What I should create in my server to get the data from the booking engine with Google Tag Manager ?
This is the illustrations:
I have two sites called sites1.com and sites2.com. In sites1.com I put the Google Tag Manager scripts to push form submit data like full name, last name, email, etc. After somebody submit the form I want to get the submited data in sites1.com to sites2.com with Google Tag Manager. My problem is how to get the data after somebody submited the form in sites1.com in my sites2.com ?
Please anybody knows how to resolve my problem . Thanks in advance .
Well if they implement your GTM from site2.com into site1.com all you need to do is:
Create a trigger for the submit button on the form (use the ID o class of the element and check for the that the Page URL contains site1.com/)
Create a tag where you want the information to be send
Scrap the fields with javascript or ask them to push to the dataLayer the information you need (in this case you can build the trigger based on this event)
And SUPER important: check all your triggers so no other tag fires on site1.com
2.1:
Im not sure if i get where you want this information to be stored but keep in mind GA does not accept PII. On the other hand if you want this in some DB you can just create and endpoint and send the information as parameters. Example:
site2.com/booking_info?field1={{DL variable}}
And just use a Custom IMG tag.
Ive made something like this using API Gateway, Lambda and DynamoDB and it took me 15 mins to set up. (just to give you perspective)
-- EDIT:
Ones you have the information avaliable you can send it to your database using two methods:
Using a HTML tag and making a request with javascript
Making a request with a custom image tag
On the past i ve just added the URL with parameters where you want the request to be made on an image tag and worked perfectly for me.
-- More info:
The custom image tag requests an image from a particular URL. The interesting part is that by making the request you’re actually transmitting information to a server. For example, if you request an image via URL https://www.example.com/something?parameter1=good¶meter2=123, the receiving server processes parameter1 and parameter2 and acts accordingly (e.g. registers those parameters as an event).

So, I know that when I submit a form whose method is POST that the server receives the contents of that form and then processes them accordingly, and then returns a page with the desired content. What I am trying to learn is what exact query url is being passed to the server side script when I submit a form on a website that does not belong to me. The reason I want this query string is so that I can make use of the server side script programatically with my own data. There is no public API served by this website, but I would like to formulate my own.
So my question is, is there a way to intercept the POST as a query string URL? Perhaps by using a javascript console in browser?
I know I can look at the source code for the page and find the names/values of the form fields. However, there also happens to be a hidden field on this page whose properties are set by javascript during validation at submission time. How should I go about this?
You can use an extension for intercept the data : Tamper Data on FireFox
https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/tamper-data/
You can intercept and modify all headers requests
I am trying to automate the querying of names on 2 different websites. For each website I have to enter in the same name and take a screenshot of the results.I don't know how to approach this project. Is it possible to automate this with a javascript? Thank you for any input.

You should be able to accomplish this with PhantomJS relatively easily. Check out the examples page - you'll probably want to use code evaluation to fill out and submit your forms, after which you can render the page to an image file.
You actually do this is one step: send a POST requests to the information you need. For the first example, you would send these POST data:
__VIEWSTATE=dDwtNzQ5MzEyMDI3Ozs%2BHWC8LXZfQQTCTJWtmudNLStjn%2Fk%3D&txtLastName1=test&txtFirstName1=&txtBusinessName1=&txtLastName2=&txtFirstName2=&txtBusinessName2=&txtLastName3=&txtFirstName3=&txtBusinessName3=&txtLastName4=&txtFirstName4=&txtBusinessName4=&txtLastName5=&txtFirstName5=&txtBusinessName5=&cmdSubmit=Search
So you can use PhantomJS, as suggested, with a POST request and take a screenshot. Or you can use a web service to create the screenshots. Unfortunately, very few allow POST requests with custom POST data. Browshot (see API) lets you send POST data and use a custom Referer. So your screenshot requests would include (after you encode the POST data):
url=http://exclusions.oig.hhs.gov/search.aspx&referer=http://exclusions.oig.hhs.gov/search.aspx&post_data=__VIEWSTATE%3DdDwtNzQ5MzEyMDI3Ozs%252BHWC8LXZfQQTCTJWtmudNLStjn%252Fk%253D%26txtLastName1%3Dtest%26txtFirstName1%3D%26txtBusinessName1%3D%26txtLastName2%3D%26txtFirstName2%3D%26txtBusinessName2%3D%26txtLastName3%3D%26txtFirstName3%3D%26txtBusinessName3%3D%26txtLastName4%3D%26txtFirstName4%3D%26txtBusinessName4%3D%26txtLastName5%3D%26txtFirstName5%3D%26txtBusinessName5%3D%26cmdSubmit%3DSearch
I have tested it, and do get a screenshot of the results, like if I filled out the form and submitted it.
How do I create a link that when the user clicks, it will bring him to the Google page as shown below (with the To field completed):
Right now, what I've managed is to simply link him to https://mail.google.com/mail/#compose and this is what he will see:
Similarly, is there a way to achieve this on hotmail as well?
https://mail.google.com/mail/?view=cm&tf=1&to=someone#gmail.com&fs=1
This shows the composition screen. To get the whole gmail interface, remove &tf=1.
If you also want to preset a subject, just add &su=YourSubject to the query string
The data is sended by POST, I think. Try to trace the HTTP Header when clicking on the link that redirects to the already filled page, with the Firefox Addon "Live HTTP Headers" for example. If the third line starts with POST, look at the last line before "HTTP/1.1 200 OK", this is the sended POST data. You will probably find the auto filled mail adress there. If so, you can do a javascript POST request to the given URL: http://www.bennyn.de/programmierung/javascript/http-post-request-mit-javascript.html, or you can use a framework like jQuery.
This does not answer your question but if you are to request a person to send an email then it is best to use the mailto: in your links so that it uses the computers default mail service. I am unaware if this uses web-based mail but it will open up the computers default mailing program (And it stops you from having to account for every different email service).
And I tested Dennis's answer, and it does work for me. What do you mean by 'It ain't working', any error messages? anything that can help solve the issue?
I am trying to implement GSA(Google Search Appliance) in my app. I want to use the REST(JSON) call that the GSA provides. The point for this question is that, the GSA needs a POST request in order to return the JSON response.
Now when I made a new dummy HTML page with a form and make a POST request with parameters I get a successful response(JSON)
But, when I try using the $.post(...) method to send a POST request to the URL I am not getting the actual response, but some error page.
I just wanted to know is there a difference between a standard submit and an ajax form submit. If yes, is there any workaround for this situation.
Please Help. Thanks in Advance.
If you want to submit the form through ajax but in the conventional way, You should have a look at jquery form plugin . Just make your submit button to type button and on click submit your form thorugh .ajaxSubmit(). I think this will solve your problem.
GSA search protocol is based on HTTP GET. All search parameters need to be passed in via query string. Also, out of box, GSA only returns either HTML or XML results. You could apply an xslt that transforms xml to JSON -- but I'm yet to find one that works really well (i.e., I've found a couple but they don't return valid JSON in all instances).
